Answer:

Part 1:

Nominal rate=8.12%

Part 2:

FV=1000(1+0.0812)^1\\FV=\$1,081.2

$1,081.2 is the money you will have at the end of one year.

Part 3:

The Saving account is short of $31.8 ($1113-$1081.2) to buy the bicycle after 1 year because of inflation.

Explanation:

Real Interest rate=2%

Inflation rate=6%

Deposited amount=$1000

Part 1:

Formula:

Real interest rate=\frac{1+Nominal\ rate}{1+inflation\ rate}-1

2\%=\frac{1+Nominal\ rate}{1+6\%} -1\\Nominal\ rate=[(0.02+1)*(1+0.06)]-1\\Nominal\ rate=0.0812

Nominal rate=8.12%

Part 2:

How much money will you have at the end of one year can be calculated as:

FV=PV(1+i)^n

where:

FV is the future value

PV is the present value=$1000

i is the Nominal interest rate (Calculated above)=8.12%

n is the number of years=1 year

FV=1000(1+0.0812)^1\\FV=\$1,081.2

$1,081.2 is the money you will have at the end of one year.

Part 3:

Calculating the price of bicycle after one year due to inflation:

FV_{bicycle}=PV(1+inflation\ rate)^n\\FV_{bicycle}=1050(1+0.06)^1\\FV_{bicycle}=\$1113

The Saving account is short of $31.8 ($1113-$1081.2) to buy the bicycle after 1 year because of inflation.

solmaris [256]

Answer: $51,000

Explanation:

Thirty-five percent of the sales on account are collected in the month of sale, 45% in the month following sale, and the remainder are collected in the second month following sale.

In March therefore, the cashflow will consist of;

35% of March sales

45% of February sales

20% of January sales

= (35% * 40,000) + (45% * 60,000) + (20% * 50,000)

= 14,000 + 27,000 + 10,000

= $51,000

Who is most likely to benefit when the Canadian dollar depreciates against the euro? A. Foreign sellers to Canadian buyers B. Ca
mariarad [96]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

When the Canadian dollar depreciates against the euro, the value of the Canadian dollar falls relative to the Euro.

For example, the exchange rate before the depreciation is 40 Canadian dollar / Euro. After the depreciation, it is 80 Canadian dollars / Euro.

Goods become more expensive for Canadian buyers of foreign goods. For example, a foreign good costs 160 Euros. Before the depreciation the good would cost (160 x 40) = 6400 Canadian dollars. After the depreciation, it would cost, 12,800 Canadian dollars.

Canadian sellers to foreign buyers don't benefit from the depreciation. Assume a local good costs 40 Canadian dollars. foreigners would pay 1 Euro for the good before depreciation. After depreciation, foreigners would pay 0.5 Euros for the good
